Steven Spielberg
Movies are always in a state of locomotion. You start with a general idea of how it should feel and then you find you've got a runaway train. You have to race to catch up: the movie is telling you what it wants to become, and when that happens there's no greater feeling.
Steven Spielberg
Godzilla was the most masterful of all dinosaur movies because it made you believe it was really happening.
Steven Spielberg
I think documentaries are the greatest way to educate an entire generation that doesn't often look back to learn anything about the history that provided a safe haven for so many of us today.
Steven Spielberg
